Filling My Spirit With Joy!

5/19/2018

22 Comments

 
It was good to finally sit at my sculpting table in the early morning hours yesterday.  It felt like home, my soul was filled with Joy even if it was only for a short time.  I have always used art as a way to heal the spirit.  If you have read my ABOUT section of  the web-site then you know how important art has always been to me.  It's a way to escape into a world where you can create from your imagination.  My secret place to escape.  It's kind of like reading a good book and escaping into the pages.

I knew my time was limited ,so I just worked on a base I had already started.  I originally wanted to sculpt a Santa on the base.  Fall is my favorite season , so "Spiderella" came to life.  Her messy Italian hair complete with spiders is looking like my hair these days.  She has already found a forever home in sunny California.  

The wheels are just turning in my head again and I can't wait to get back to the sculpt table.  It will be slow going as most of my time in the day is used taking care of Kevin and all the appointments, paperwork etc..   He is headed for a procedure first week in June and Surgery is now a go for second week in June.  Please continue your prayers as we continue this journey.

In January I would never have guessed how our entire life  completely change changed in a moment.  The year started off with such excitement as I was going to finally really start journing out with travel teaching.  So, many exciting classes were scheduled and I was so humbly honored that so many wanted me to come teach.  I was heartbroken to cancel my travels for the year and felt I left so many people down.  I am hoping one day I can resume that dream but for now I am right where I want and need to be beside the love of my life.  He has been the biggest supporter of me and he is the reason I am doing what I love to do for without his nudging this shy girl would still be sculpting away in private.  I even bought a video camera system the week before this all began to do videos for online classes.  I never even had time to get the packaging off .  I was going to return it but I figure if I can't travel teach at the present maybe now is the time to do the videos.  

Be sure and check out the Florida Gourd society web-site as Semla and Peggy will be still teaching some of my designs with my blessing.  I wish for everyone to have a good time.  I will be there in spirit.  I am working on two patterns for them for the retreat.  Once I am finished with "Pilgrim Pete" and "Corney"  I will then begin typing the pile of projects I have photographed for pattern releases.

The reason for this blog post is I want your vote!!  I would like to know which project/projects you would like to see next as a pattern release.  

​Please leave a comment on this blog post to cast your vote as to the next pattern I will work on.  


​Blessings to everyone as you have blessed me this year in more ways than I can count.  I hope to continue to use what gift I have been given to bring smiles to all.
